A Whole Lot Going On

Man oh man have we had A LOT going on!  Claire and Breanne finished their first soccer season the beginning of June. It sure was fun watching them become incredibly strong players.  The girls finished kindergarten a few weeks ago, and I am in denial that I now have two first graders.  The girls and I just got back from a 6-day visit to Duluth to see my family.  The weather was still cool and the mosquitoes were out, but we had a lot of fun hanging out at the lake and visiting with family.  The girls sure had a blast playing with their cousins.  We look forward to seeing everybody again in August at our family reunion in North Dakota.  Meanwhile, Lance was offered a job in Puyallup, Washington.  The offer was too good to refuse, so we are moving yet again.  In the past few weeks Lance was offered the job, Lance accepted the job, we put our house on the market, we sold our house, we got an offer accepted on a house in Bonnie Lake, and Lance has started his new job.  What a whirlwind!  The girls and I will be making the big move in about 20 days.  At this point, Lance is staying at a hotel in Puyallup on the weeknights and makes the drive home for the weekends.  We are all very sad to leave our home and neighborhood friends, but are excited about the opportunity for Lance as he has been unhappy with his job here for quite some time.  Lots of changes and lots of stress around here, so here's hoping that it will all be worth it!
